sounds like base-config does mess with the networking,
let's check the following here:

  - /proc/virtual/<xid>/status (for caps)
  - ip addr ls (before and after the base-config)
  - ip route ls (again, before and after)

(you might need to install the 'ip' utility from iproute2)

that sounds like a wget bug, would not be the first one :)

yep, try to provide the data mentioned above, and/or pay
a visit to the irc channel (#vserver @ irc.oftc.net) for
a more interactive experience :)
